Since updating last week the Fedora 19 screensaver is causing me grief.
I have it off and time delay set to never but it blanks the screen and
defaults to a time display after 30+ minutes , on any key press it gives
the login dialog which cannot be accessed either by tab key or mouse so
there is no way to log in.
+1  F19 Gnome 3 - new issue in the last couple of weeks.

If you have both GNOME and Cinnamon installed and are seeing this in GNOME,
it's already fixed in the latest F19 updates. It was discussed in
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/users/2013-October/441728.html .

My problem is not that I have it screen lock set to off. I have it set to on. Sometimes the normal unlock screen pops up (Gnome 3 theme look and feel) but other times a more plain unlock screen pops up and will not accept keyboard input.

I have updated twice sine this started and it's still occurring.  It is requiring a hard reboot. (I don't know any other way to get around it. - Mouse moves but keyboard does nothing.)

Best,
William


Actually it's not fixed.
I have the latest updates as of yesterday afternoon 25 October and find that if one re enters the password with in a few minutes of it switching off then one can indeed log in but if one waits say half an hour or more, the lock out is permanent and requires cold start.
